I really have mixed opinions with this series; the content is good but the video itself is honestly quite terrible - it's just 20 minutes or so of standing in front of a spot, looking at a character panel. I really think you need to strike a mix between how you're tackling this series and how you did the older series where you broadcasted the entire quest chain; when talking about an item from a quest, overlay some footage of that quest while you talk about it just so it's more interesting to look at and when you're done discussing an item, move footage to the next item.
Yeah I kind of agree. It's a bit dull and by the end you've pretty much forgotten everything he said. You'd be better off just looking up a BiS list on a web page. This isn't really taking advantage of the video format.
@@SkarrGaming But a BiS list is not going to list these items. This is exactly what I made these videos, to fill in the gap of being a fresh level 70 and having preraid bis
Yes ,hello Hamster ! Just wanted to let you know I'm so grateful for your channel ,especially because of the private server reviews and these kind of gearing videos ,but tbh for anything. Have a great day ! ( no, I'm not simp)
Beginning with Season 3, a lot of the arena set 1 items (especially the helmet with meta gem sockets) were also very viable choices, if you are a little bit into battlegrounds.
@@HamsterWheelGaming Paladins. I saw that guide you uploaded years ago, but just like you mentioned in one of your most recent videos I think you are improving those old ones.
Man I am playing a Spriest on Endless and tbh even if I don't need that many crit (since dots can't crit , yet) , most of the gear with spell crit strike has better overall stats than the others so I might aswell take them , atleast I will pop out big mind blasts and heals whenever I need to
It's a good option, but its a bit of a guessing game hoping you'll find that green with those stats on the auction house. In my humble opinion at least
Hmm not sure actually, while starfire is their main source of damage, I know that things like Wrath can be useful in some boss fights and insect swarm is also a standard part of their rotation. So both wrath and insect swarm will get 0 extra spell damage from those spells. Though honestly, I did see one or two balance druids rocking spellfire on a bc private server I played and they did just fine in terms of DPS
@@HamsterWheelGaming apparently sunfire robes is bis for moonkins so I think I'll go tailoring/enchanting. what professions would you suggest? also, do you know if the damage bonus on the windhawk set stacks?
I understand the question Azuran, I'm making these because: 1. They are kind of timeless, meaning that despite the time I release them they will always be relevant to someone who's starting on either a TBC private server or classic TBC in the near future 2. I really enjoy making them, and that's mainly the driving factor for me. Yes it would maybe be smarter to release everything right when TBC from blizzard is around the corner when there's more hype, but this channel and my videos never had the main focus of 'how many views can I pull', or 'when is the right time to do x video to get the most amount of tractio' and I intend to keep it that way :)
Awesome guide! I will be referring to this when TCB comes out next year!!
Thanks bro!
Seen a lot of your vids hamster, but this series is my favorite. Subbed. Keep it up, sir :-)

I see where you are coming from but I just wanted the info.

U come in clutch everytime i retoll tbc. Thank u hampster 😄
Lol no problem dude!
I recommend Zhar’doom, Greatstaff of the Devourer in your melee slot. Great for entry level dungeons.
This drops from Illidan Stormrage in Black Temple. So its pretty easy to get too.
@@sands201 Too low of an item, the rest of your party for Sethekk Halls normal will look at that and auto-kick you for having crap gear.
Hamsterwheel Pretty toxic, Zhar’doom isn’t that bad. Honestly thought it was pretty good. Maybe stick with something like The Stoppable Force.
Yes ,hello Hamster ! Just wanted to let you know I'm so grateful for your channel ,especially because of the private server reviews and these kind of gearing videos ,but tbh for anything. Have a great day ! ( no, I'm not simp)
Thanks for the kind words dude, you have yourself a great day as well! Stay safe in these rough times!

Your guides are the best.
Hope you make one for melees, particularly plate
Do you mean tanks or paladins? Cause the previous episode was focused around the dps warrior :)
@@HamsterWheelGaming Paladins.

@@sergiogonzales330 Oh right gotcha, don't worry I definitely plan on tackling the Ret paladin sooner or later!
enhancement shaman next!
Soon :)

any chance for a heroic dungeon/raid bis list for fire/arcane mage tbc guide?
Just curious were dots not able to crit in TBC? Or when was this implemented?
Yeah dots can't crit in TBC, I believe it was Wrath when they started having crit chance too
Just do all the quests in SMV and NS. You will be ready for Kara as long as you got attuned.
Is there only more TBC content to come in the future?
Are you going to do something like this for WoTLK as well? Also, great video!
For the belt wouldnt Archmage belt of the sorcerer be better than these options? Cheap af on AH too. 21 int 25 spell damage/healing and 32 stamina
It's a good option, but its a bit of a guessing game hoping you'll find that green with those stats on the auction house. In my humble opinion at least
what do you think of wearing the spellfire set as a druid?
Hmm not sure actually, while starfire is their main source of damage, I know that things like Wrath can be useful in some boss fights and insect swarm is also a standard part of their rotation.

also, do you know if the damage bonus on the windhawk set stacks?
On which platform do you create these guides? Some private server?
Yeah I have my own private server where I can make and create the items and characters I want
Hi Hamsterwheel! In what server do you play Tbc currently? Keep the good work!
I don't play any TBC server, all this footage is just recorded on my own private server with GM commands and stuff :)
@@HamsterWheelGaming do you still play wow? Private servers or blizzard?
Please do a RESTO DRUID GUIDE!?
Really aweesome video.U gota do Karazan and gruul every video its just to interesting if u do it.
What addon puts values on your spells?
What exactly do you mean? An addon that displays how much one of your spells does?
come back! :
welcome to hamsterwheel fucking around doing some shit ep 5!
Isn't too early to release this content when we don't even know release date of tbc?
Life lesson #1: You can never be too early
U can still play TBC on private servers tho
Very stupid question. Thousands play private servers.
Besides, do you want him to wait more than a whole fucking year?

Tbc is the best in wow I was a disp Priest in pvp 2v2 and Dominated
Hamsterwheel is here boiz
Sup y'all, isyaboy
I feel like my shadow priests raid gear is better than most of these lol
You mean on classic or on a TBC server you're playing on?
